Abstract: There are provided a clock node, a controller, a method of operating the clock node and a method of operating the controller in a time distribution network (TDN) comprising the controller being in data communication with the clock nodes via a control path. The method of operating the clock node comprises: sending, from the clock node via the control path to the controller, a first timestamp-related data; receiving, by the clock node via the control path from the controller, clock-recovery control data generated by the controller using the first timestamp-related data received from the clock node; processing the received clock-recovery control data to extract data usable for phase and frequency recovery; and using the extracted data to steer frequency and phase characterizing the clock node.

Abstract: Verification of continuity for a network service path that includes at least one network function that blocks test packets may be achieved by providing a bypass mechanism to bypass test packets around the at least one network function that blocks test packets. Verification of continuity may be done when the network service is available for active use or when it is not ready for active use. Detection of a continuity problem leads to more detailed diagnostic work.

Abstract: A Generalized-Multi-Protocol Label Switching controlled network is described, as is a method for managing services in the network under conditions of disrupted control plane connectivity. Nodes of the network use a Resource Reservation Protocol with Traffic Engineering extension, RSVP-TE, to allocate and provision resources of the network. Each of the nodes is adapted to evaluate local RSVP Path or Resv state data after having sent at least one signaling message to a receiving neighboring node without receipt of an acknowledgement message from said receiving node within a configurable time to determine an IP address of a node being located after the non-responsive receiving node along a service path of a service in a downstream or upstream direction. Each node is adapted to send the signaling message to the determined IP address of the next node located behind the non-responsive receiving node along the service path.
